Hello Guix!

FOSDEM is coming, friends!  We have very few days left to submit talks
in developer rooms.  The following tracks seem to be relevant to us:

  =E2=80=A2 Minimalist languages:
    <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2019q4/002916.html>
    (deadline: Nov. 26th).

  =E2=80=A2 HPC:
    <https://hpc-bigdata-fosdem20.github.io/>
    (deadline: Nov. 29th)

  =E2=80=A2 Containers:
    <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2019q4/002888.html>
    (deadline: Nov. 29th)

  =E2=80=A2 Dependency management:
    <https://www.fasten-project.eu/view/Events/FOSDEM_DevRoom_Call_For_Pres=
entations?u=3DsNMbKejjLY2y5ia>
    (deadline: Dec. 4th)

  =E2=80=A2 Testing & automation:
    <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2019q4/002897.html>
    (deadline: Dec. 10th)

  =E2=80=A2 Distributions:
    <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/fosdem/2019q4/002936.html>
    (deadline: Dec. 1st)

And there are more: security, Rust, etc.; see
<https://fosdem.org/2020/news/2019-10-01-accepted-developer-rooms/>.

Full disclosure: I=E2=80=99ve submitted a talk on Guix-Jupyter in the HPC t=
rack,
as well as a general Guix =E2=80=9Cmain track=E2=80=9D talk (chances are lo=
w for this
one, but it=E2=80=99d be nice!).

It=E2=80=99d be nice if you could present what you=E2=80=99ve been doing in=
 or around
Guix there, particularly in tracks that would allow us to reach out to
people we don=E2=80=99t usually get to talk to.  There=E2=80=99s been a lot=
 of work on a
variety of hot topics: bootstrapping (Mes & co., Rust, etc.), Guix Home,
Guix Data Service, =E2=80=98guix deploy=E2=80=99, GWL, Guix on ARM, etc. le=
t=E2=80=99s talk
about it!

I also think we ought to be in the minimalist languages track and in the
distro track, and it=E2=80=99s even better if it=E2=80=99s not the same per=
son as usual.
:-)

Ludo=E2=80=99.
